Are B/S the Rus No.1 ?

Ice Dancing has always been political, watching the blatant SD at the recent CoR
it is clear they are still pushing for B/S

but are they worth it ? Russian Fed is making a big mistake continuing investing in B/S they might realise it will come back to bite them
B/S have mediocre programs with backwards costumes, I/K maybe inconsistent but if they can get mileage this season their programs are Olympic Bronze medal or even Olympic Silver medal worthy if V/M falter.
